dollars are spent on farmers markets, that money stays in local economies. we're starting to get traction there. people understand when they understand health outcomes of people living on a poor diet, educational outcomes, i think they start to take notice. >> tom, i'm going to open up to my friends in new york. we talked about income inequality in the last block. here is an example of structural, systemic failures that throwed historic highs in terms of poverty. we are talking about cuts to food stamps. i wonder from your standpoint whether you think democrats and progressives have paid enough attention to this issue, which is hunger in america, and whether democrats have ceded too much ground to the right. at this moment being where we are on poverty, we're talking about cuts to food stamps instead of at the very least maintaining funding we have. >> this is an interesting question when we've just extolled the virtue of obama's ability to negotiate. what that represents and we talk about mandela. listen, we obviously made jokes all morning about the gridlo

it will be good for our economy. it will be good for our families. [ applause ] number four, as i alluded to earlier, we still need targeted programs for the communities and workers that have been hit hardest by economic change in the great recession. these communities are no longer limited to the inner city. they're found in neighborhoods hammered by the housing crisis, manufacturing towns hit hard by years of plants packing up, land-locked rural areas where young folks oftentimes feel like they've got to leave just to find a job. they're communities that just aren't generating enough jobs anymore. so we put forward new plans to help these communities and their residents because we've watched cities like pittsburgh or my hometown of chicago revamp themselves. if we give more cities the tools to do it, not handouts but a hand up, cities like detroit can do it too. so in a few weeks, we'll announce the first of these promise zones, urban and rural communities where we'll support local efforts focused on a national goa

still any respite is welcome in an economy with 12% unemployment and 40% inflation. on sunday for the first time inspectors from the u.n.'s nuclear watchdog toured the heavy water reactor at iraq. a sign that while there's plenty of scepticism some progress was already under way. robert, the president towed a careful line here. i thought his remarks were interesting. it seems like we're in the middle of what our good friend david axelrod likes to call kabuki theater, confident but not overconfident. i wonder about the deal back and forth between president obama and members of his own congress like bob menendez pushing this renewed sanctions deal. >> i do think you've got the potential collision of a lot of different time lines. the president, i think, is realistic to say there's a possibility of a deal but the deal can long move forward long-term if iranians are willing to do things. if he understands that from colliding time lines politically you've got congressional members from both parties pursuing sanctions. you've got israelis against this deal. i think the one
